I made this hat for my favorite sister missionary! I wish I could have gotten a picture of her in it, but you get the picture.

Stats: cascade 220 yarnSize 8 needles I made the first part of hat from Race for Life pattern.Then I moss stitched the rest. I used the Retro Girl pattern for the flower. I liked this hat and know I will make more!

My 5 year old niece loves monsters, vampires, ghosts, and recently kittens (I think Audrey had something to do with that). So I decided to make her a monster hat for her birthday in February. She's so cute in it and hopefully she'll get to wear it more next winter...because it's starting to warm up...yay!

I also didn't have time to fix the stitching on it, it bugs me b/c it's not perfect, but I don't think Anna minds.

So, this is the first thing I've knit for myself and I'm not sure if I like it. I've worn it a couple of times but I have to say that the wool is a bit itchy and the hat is a little snug. I'm glad I got that out of my system though because I don't want to knit another one for a long time!

About Me

I have been knitting for two years...so not a pro by any means, but I am getting more brave and this year I have a goal of doing a cable (they scare me so much right now). I'm a stay at home mom and I majored in Elemetary Education. Also I am a cosmetologist, I went to Vidal Sassoon Academy in Los Angeles. Also I went to MUD (makeup designery Academy) in Burbank to learn more about makeup for film and movies. I enjoy learning new things, I just have a problem finding the time to practice them. Very excited to be in the knitting world!
